Our good friend, Dr. Henry, turned 70 recently. He played such a big part of our lives while we were in college and has continued to do so since then. His family was throwing him a birthday party, so we went. They asked Phil to sing and to say a little something about Dr. Henry. There were other people there that also did some songs and talked about him. The kids call them Pop and Gram (Mrs. Henry), so they are very dear to us. We had some time on Saturday, so we did some touristy things. We never really have the chance to do that in Chattanooga, since we are normally just passing through and stay long enough to see the Henrys. On Saturday, we went to the zoo in the morning, did a duck tour in the afternoon, and then took the free shuttle to Coolidge Park and rode the carousel. That night we had dinner with the Henrys at Lupie's and hung out at their house after. Sunday, we went to the Henrys' church and then had the party after the morning service. Rachel drove Andrew (the Henrys' oldest son that has autism) around so Mrs. Henry could be with Mr. Henry during the party. It was a nice weekend and the weather was beautiful. We were so thankful to all be together.
